A Bama Blog: Troy King for Attorney General

Mark Montiel has filed so many lawsuits over the past few years on behalf of one partisan cause or another that it's difficult to keep track. Some of those suits had merit, in my opinion, but others - like the one that practically begged the federal courts to redraw the state's legislative district lines to ensure the election of more Republicans - ran counter to the best interests of the state. The Attorney General represents the State of Alabama, not the Republican Party. As the successor to Bill Pryor, Troy King has had a difficult act to follow; although he has sometimes been a bit too publicity-seeking for my tastes, he has performed admirably and he deserves a full term.
